On my way home from visiting family out of state I stopped by a 2nd and Charles on the way and was pleasantly surprised to find a CIB Samba De Amigo Dreamcast controller set. It also came with the NTSC/US copy of the game, which I already own, but was a cool addition no less. I also picked up Guilty Gear Strive on the PS4 which I haven't tried out yet.

So I just got back from a vacation to Tokyo, and before I left I promised myself I wouldn't spend too much on games and merch.

I failed. Miserably.



So let's go over it!

Nintendo Switch

* HORI Taiko No Tatsujin Drum Controller for Nintendo Switch. I love Taiko no Tatsujin in the arcades, so when I saw the drum controller for a very reasonable price, I couldn't resist. And I got that along with...
* Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival. Not only because I obviously need a game to play with the controller, but because I bought both together, I also got an exclusive collector's box! (That's what the controller box is on top of)
* Gori: Cuddly Carnage. This game hasn't released physically in Europe, but it has in Japan. I already bought it on GOG and played it on my Steam Deck, but I loved this game so much I just had to get it physically. So glad to have it on my shelf now!
Wii U

* Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND. At least, I think? I haven't found much English information on this disc yet. This seems to be that software (the name and branding seem to be identical), but that app was also free to download on the eShop. Though according to my translator app, the case says something like "10.000 trial songs", so maybe this was a trial version? Who knows. Either way, it was dirt cheap, and I'd like to own all the "Wii" series games, which this does seem to be. So glad to have it.
Wii

* Super Mario All-Stars 25th Anniversary Edition. Actually didn't have this yet, and it was significantly cheaper than it would be in Europe. So I figured, why not.
* Kirby's Dream Collection. This didn't even release in Europe at all, so really neat to now have this.
* Minna no Jōshiki Ryoku Televi / みんなの常識力テレビ. This one baffled me when I came across it, because it's a first-party Nintendo title with Mii branding that I had never heard of. Machine translating to "Everyone's common sense TV", it appears to be a family quiz game? No idea, gonna look into that, but love having this obscure Mii title on my shelf now.
* And-Kensaku / 安藤ケンサク. This Japanese-only first-party Nintendo game revolves around Google search syntax and actual real Google searches. That just sounds so Nintendo-random to me, and I like odd Nintendo software.
Nintendo 3DS

* Gudetama: Hanjuku de Tanomuwā / ぐでたま 半熟でたのむわー. I have no idea what this is. I just thought the cover was funny.
* AKB48+Me. Another obscure Japanese-only Mii-centric game, this one about the player joining the real-life idol popgroup AKB48. Another one for my Mii-games collection.
Nintendo DS

* Tomodachi Collection. I absolutely loved Tomodachi Life when it came out, so really cool to own its Japan-only predecessor now.
* Densetsu no Stafy 4 / 伝説のスタフィー4. Never played a Starfy game before, but I've always been curious about them, so I finally picked one up.
* Game & Watch Collection. The Club Nintendo-exclusive that was always so elusively out of reach for me, suddenly on the shelf for like a third of what the European version goes for.
Soundtracks

* Bayonetta Original Soundtrack
* Bayonetta 2 Original SoundtrackThose two soundtracks especially were much more money than I was planning to spend on anything. The Bayonetta 1 soundtrack was the equivalent of about 25 euros, but the Bayonetta 2 soundtrack cost me a little over 100 euros. I almost walked away from it, but then I checked and both go for easily double those prices on western ebay and Discogs, sometimes even triple. The Bayonetta games are my favourite games of all time, so if there was ever a moment to get these amazing collectibles, it was now. And I don't regret it.

Oh yeah, and I got a Dark Pit amiibo, a small Meganium plush and a rather big Rockruff plush. I couldn't help myself, my sense of self-control was very weak this trip.

To my understanding, the disc's contents offer only a trial edition for those using it without an internet connection and only after creating an account when seems to expire after one month. With both the account and an internet connection, users are able to select a payment plan to access the entire catalog of songs available, like with normal karaoke booths.

So, if what I'm understanding is correct, a new account will need to be created every month to enjoy free, but limited, content. Without selecting a payment plan, users may select 50 songs of 10,000 total which can be sung multiple times throughout that time window. Meanwhile, the full catalog boasts over 90,000 songs. Also, the back cover states that pricing is susceptible to change.

Since this item originates from Japan, I'd wager that the service is still operable, but I haven't researched that detail to know for sure.

Edit: Also, the keepcase itself is a part of a larger package that includes a microphone.
